Her attitude was such that she gave no heed to my status. In a way, she was similar to Freya. Their confidence that no matter what happened, everyone would believe in them, and that they will never be abandoned– I wanted to shatter that confidence.

 

I wouldn’t have thought so if she hadn’t irked me like that in the first place.

 

“I’ll fill in the water. Are you fine with lemon perfumed oil?”

 

“Yes, thank you.”

 

After that, I took a bath in the water with lemon’s fragrance, combed my hair, and dressed up with light makeup and accessories. As I sat alone and patted my skirt, it suddenly felt so real.

 

Ah, I really looked ready- my heart started pulsating. I tried pressing my chest with my hand and it didn’t calm me down at all. I was so scared!

 

…What if he didn’t come?

 

That person with a twisted mind would definitely change his mind at the last moment. I put down my teacup, got up and approached the bed.

 

I even blew off the candles, but it wasn’t too dark with the fireplace burning. I wished it was darker. I crouched on the bed with my legs folded under my arms and looked out of the window. The sea was full of black waves.

 

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Krakens below were lurking in search of food.

 

Heh, I wonder how Popo’s doing? If we could meet again sometime…

 

I should thank Freya for that. If it weren’t for her, I wouldn’t have imagined talking to it.

“Did you fall asleep first after all that fuss?”

 

……Hic, I thought my heart was going to pop out of my chest. He made no sound coming in, but I was probably too deep in thought anyway.

 

As I hurriedly stood up with my hair hanging below my waist, I could see Izek taking his place, right next to me.

 

The green light of the fireplace eerily shone on his enormous physique. I’d only seen him in armour or a suit before. In nothing but thin white clothing, it was as if he were naked.

 

I literally felt like I was losing my mind.

 

Oh my god. Oh my god–

The arrogant man with his arms crossed, looked down at me, and shifted his hand to sweep back his wet silver hair. Blood red eyes sparkled in the dark room.

 

“I don’t know much about this, but it’s obvious that the bride isn’t supposed to look like this while waiting for the bridegroom.”

 

I came to my senses with a jerk.

What are you doing, idiot? Are you going to ruin it?

 

“Oh, I’m sorry if I looked blank. I just couldn’t believe my eyes for a second.”
